4/6: spending time outside

...twice today.

In the morning, Chris and I went to see the dogwood blooms in our woods.  There was only a single tree flowering this year.  It's sad to think that "our" dogwoods may have run their course, but I'm glad we got to see one today.  I also checked out the tulips whose bulbs Chris had planted.  The strong storms this week came at a bad time for them:  their stems got broken.  But their colors were bright on a grey day, and there are maybe two buds that escaped damage and may bloom in the coming week.

In the afternoon, I squeezed in a short walk. When we finished doing our federal taxes, it wasn't raining, so I took advantage of the window of opportunity.
